London, UK — 22/09/2025— The Recycling Expo 2025 is proud to announce two significant new sponsorships that reinforce the event’s commitment to innovation and sustainability in recycling and resource management.

UpCycled Medical, founded in 2021 and pioneering sustainable medical workwear, has joined Jett Distribution as co-sponsor of the Waste Authority Lounge — the exclusive space welcoming London Waste Authorities, UK local authorities, and their invited guests.

At the same time, Supracycling Global, a technology leader in polymer and nylon recycling — including tyre rubber — has been confirmed as the official sponsor of the VIP Lounge, which will host senior executives, sustainability leaders, waste managers, and the inaugural Circular 100 honourees.

Both organisations are led by Linda Ball, CEO of Supracycling Global and UpCycled Medical, who will also take to the stage as a featured speaker at the event.

UpCycled Medical currently transforms plastics recovered from oceans and landfills across Europe, the UK, Egypt, and Vietnam into new medical textiles such as scrubs, tunics, trousers, and theatre hats. Its process delivers measurable environmental savings of 37% carbon, 40% energy, and 34% water per linear metre, while providing clients with carbon credits to offset against taxes.

In partnership with Supracycling’s ALTERIN technology, these textiles can now be recycled multiple times or biodegrade in under four weeks — quadrupling carbon, energy, and water savings and pushing the boundaries of circular innovation.

The Recycling Expo takes place 7–8 October 2025 at ExCeL London, co-located with the Sustainable Trade & Production Expo. Both the Waste Authority Lounge and the VIP Lounge will serve as central networking hubs, connecting industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators across the circular economy.
